TREE TRIMMING AND TREE PRUNING (SUMMER TIME)
It is very important that
as a property owner you take care of the trees in property and to give them the
best maintenance always contacting professionals.
Tree trimming is both an
art and a science. When shaping, trimming trees and nursery stock, it is
important to maintain their shape and symmetry.
However, it is also
important to keep the overall health of the tree in mind. Therefore, during any
tree trimming service, maintaining proper tree health is typically the number
one priority.
It is important that you
let a professional perform your tree trimming services in order to ensure that
the proper limbs are selected for trimming, and that complete tree health is
the overall goal.
Summer tree trimming and
tree pruning is to direct the growth by slowing the branches you don’t want or
to slow the development of a tree or branch. Trimming should be done after a
seasonal growth is complete.
The reason of the slowing
effect is that you reduce the total leaf surface, thereby reducing the amount
of food manufactured and sent to the root.
Another to trim or prune in the
summer is for corrective purposes. Defective limbs can be seen more easily, or
limbs that hang down too far under the weight of leaves.
It is important that the
entire tree trimming take place at the proper time of year in order to keep
trees looking their best.
For example, it is not
wise to trim trees during extreme temperatures, as this could damage the tree
resulting in discoloration or the loss of leaves or flowers.
It is also important that
ornamental trees be handled with extreme care during tree trimming services, as
they can be stressed even by light trimming, which can result in a number of
negative outcomes.
Lastly, not only do
deciduous trees require tree trimming services, but evergreens do as well.
Certain evergreens should be sheered and treated with a fertilizer yearly in
order to keep the trees looking healthy.
